### Searching on market

Providers or Requestors on Golem don’t always aim to buy or sell resources. Sometimes, they simply want to observe the market.
There are several possible reasons for this:
- Checking which resources are available on the network
- Estimating potential computation costs
- Gathering insights to better adjust negotiation strategies
- Collecting statistics about the network

The approach to observing the market is similar to the methods described in the chapters on buying and selling resources.
An agent specifies their Offer or Demand using a property and constraints specification language.
The key difference is that they are not required to negotiate with other agents, nor must they provide all necessary
information in their Offer or Demand. This is a more lightweight approach compared to going through the full negotiation
process.
